Posted by fossilfool

The evening starts with an Open House at Rock The Bike’s Berkeley workshop: 1336 Channing Way. We’ll show you our latest inventions and shop improvements.

Then we head up the hill to Campus, Sproul Plaza, to be precise, for the…

SUNSET CRUISE: A leisurely bike ride from UCB Sproul Plaza to Ashkenaz via Downtown and North Berkeley BART stations. Gathers at 7:30pm at Telegraph & Bancroft. Ride departs at Sundown (8pm) w/ en-route performances by Fossil Fool (LiveOnBike) + DanceSkateLive.

Then we roll up in style to Ashkenaz for the launch of the “I Like My Bike Night” series, a bicycle culture celebration and unbridled dance orgy on the 1st Friday of every month, will happen on May Day – also the first day of National Bicycle Month.
